Here Be The Home - Futhark Poem

10”x12”, ink and gouache.
Here be the home
of two heavenly-minded,
God-fearing good folk,
Gilbert and Carolyn,
and the copious cats
who keep them company.Being about
the Blessed One's business
in humbleness of heart,
hoping for Heaven,
they wistfully await
that wonderful day
when they'll joyfully join
Jesus their Savior,
as the God of Glory
His greatness reveals.
Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin. As a result, they do not live the rest of their earthly lives for human desires, but rather for the will of God.
— 1 Peter 4:1-2
